Kevin is a breathwork teacher, cold exposure guide, and Founder of the Mexico-based wellness company ReConnect. After years of working in human rights, Kevin fell into a downward spiral and almost lost his life to depression. Rather than turning to medication, he discovered cold therapy and breathwork. In a very short time his depression vanished and his health was suddenly rejuvenated. Kevin decided to make it his mission to understand both practices and bring them to as many people as possible. Since then Kevin has built one of the first breathwork and cold therapy companies in Mexico. They have led thousands of tourists and locals through ice bath experiences on the Caribbean beaches in Playa del Carmen. They're currently designing their own ice bath to encourage others around the world to adopt holistic health practices so that they too can heal themselves and manage their own mental health.

In this episode we're talking about the science behind cold therapy and how it can really impact your health and wellness.

Highlights from the episode:

  • Why did Kevin start getting into ice
  • Why he choose these practices over medication
  • What do ice baths do to your body/mind
  • How is breathing connected to ice baths
